On one hand, he is trying to have his cake and eat it too by reinforcing the message that the election has questions while still not participating in Brooks' effort. On the other, he is exposing the hypocrisy of Brooks and company as they will vote yes on this, but then vote to block the electoral college count. So kudos to him for that.

Definitely don’t know enough about Roy’s position on the election to know whether to greet his statement with cynicism or not, but at least the verbiage reads as if he is calling out the logical fallacies of trying to argue that ONLY the Presidential votes were fraudulent. I suppose the real question is, what is the partisan makeup of the states in question? Would not seating these elects flip the majority to the GOP?

> At one point, Trump said told the secretary of state: “All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes [Biden won the state by 11,779 votes], which is one more than we have. Because we won the state.” At another point, he claimed that he had won by “hundreds of thousands of votes.” At another he offered that he had heard rumors of ballot shredding in Fulton County, home to Atlanta. > Raffensperger has endured verbal abuse and threats to his safety throughout the entire process of counting, recounting and certifying Georgia’s results. He has stood firm, as he did once again on Saturday, pushing back politely and repeatedly saying that the president’s statements were incorrect. > Ryan Germany, the general counsel to the secretary of state, was similarly direct when Trump claimed that voting machines had been removed or in some way tampered with. “No,” he said. Asked whether he was sure of this, he said, “I’m sure. I’m sure, Mr. President.” All norms being shredded/flushed, IMO it's well past time to drop the 'normal' respect offered a legitimate president and just switch to terminology like, _“I’m sure. I’m sure, you stupid, corrupt old asshole.”_

Hear me out... In light of the new Trump recordings, I think Dems should sign the bill for $2000 checks. Here's why... Morbid McConnell put an Election Fraud Commission into the bill to prevent Dems from voting on it. But now we have the sitting Pres on tape pressing others to commit fraud. So... Let Dems call Morbid Mitch. Make sure the investigation is very thorough. Let's see who committed (and attempted to commit) election fraud. Plus... Someone won't be protected by Office of the President. It might be bad for them. So Dems, sign that bill.

One of the things Trump complained about on the GA SoS call is that there were voters who moved out of Georgia and then voted in Georgia. And Raffensperger explains how it's not like they moved out and voted somewhere else and then quickly voted in Georgia still, that there were years between these dates, that they moved back. I wonder if I'm on a Trump list. I lived in Georgia from 1993-1999ish, then lived in Virginia until about 2003, then moved back to Georgia. I always vote in all elections so I voted in Georgia, then Virginia, then Georgia -- over the span of 25+ years.
